Interplay Entertainment announces Airborne: Liberation

Interplay Entertainment and BattleBorne Entertainment announced
today a third-person action game called Airborne: Liberation. The title is
inspired by World War II, as players assume the role of a private dropped into
the D-Day invasion. Once deployed into action, players have the choice to fight
as the British Red Devils, the 101st "Screaming Eagles" Division, or the 82nd
Airborne. Other key battles will also be featured in Airborne: Liberation,
including Operation Market Garden, the siege of Bastogne, and the final assault
on Hitler's Germany. Also, the game's cooperative play allows two players to
fight through the entire game on a single screen, as a single player mode is
also available.

"We're really excited about Airborne: Liberation and look
forward to combining efforts with BattleBorne to bring this history-based
gameplay experience to consumers," said Jim Molitor, vice president of product
development for Interplay.

Airborne: Liberation is scheduled for release next year on June
6 (60th Anniversary of D-Day).
